They got next to nothing.
I would just like to remind people of this fact. It is sickening to me that in a time of desperation, disaster, and chaos... our government not only
failed, but they used the situation to practice Martial Law, quarantines, relocation camps, and they scammed millions of dollars that were intended to
go to the victims of this tragedy.

WASHINGTON — The Federal Emergency Management Agency ignored the law and misused millions of dollars to build two warehouses after hurricanes
Katrina and Rita, according to government investigators.
Some of the money FEMA misused should have gone toward Katrina victims in Louisiana, according to a Homeland Security Inspector General report
obtained by The Associated Press.

FEMA Asks For Money Back
FEMA is demanding hundreds of millions of dollars back from Hurricane Katrina victims it says were overpaid, but innocent people with few
resources are getting targeted. Armen Keteyian reports.
You know... when I watched the video I posted above, I thought this guy was a piece of $ht (a few years ago). But now, after doing some simple math,
and seeing what happened with the bailouts... The man is 100% right
The guy in the video thinks he should get $20,000 to get back up on his feet... That sounds crazy right? Well a quick google search of the
"population in New Orleans" tells me that there are 300,000 people living in the area.
Lets say we gave everyone of them $20,000... That's only $6 Billion dollars. Look at the amount of money we've thrown away the past 9 months.
I'm going to rant about this later on today...
on another states and 1000 dollar gift card so they could go and stimulate the
economy.
